In two previous papers the author introduced a multiplication of distributions in one dimension and he proved that two one-dimensional Dirac delta functions and their derivatives can be multiplied, at least under certain conditions. Here,…
This expository essay discusses a finite dimensional approach to dilation theory. How much of dilation theory can be worked out within the realm of linear algebra? It turns out that some interesting and simple results can be obtained. These…
We provide a formal introduction into the classic theorems of general topology and its axiomatic foundations in set theory. In this second part we introduce the fundamental concepts of topological spaces, convergence, and continuity, as…
In this paper we show how the theory of monads can be used to deduce in a uniform manner several duality theorems involving categories of relations on one side and categories of algebras with homomorphisms preserving only some operations on…
The goal of this paper is to present an algebraic approach to the basic results of the theory of linear recurrence relations. This approach is based on the ideas from the theory of representations of one endomorphisms (a special case of…
Many of the properties of sectional category, topological complexity and homotopic distance are in fact derived from a small number of basic properties, which, once established, lead to all the others without further recourse to topology.…
The additivity theorem for derivateurs associated to complicial biWaldhausen categories is proved. Also, to any exact category in the sense of Quillen a K-theory space is associated. This K-theory is shown to satisfy the additivity,…
This paper explores a new perspective on the universality of the vertical lift in tangent categories by presenting a categorification of the dimension of smooth manifolds. The universality of the vertical lift is a key part of the axioms of…
We advance support variety theory for finite tensor categories. First we show that the dimension of the support variety of an object equals the rate of growth of a minimal projective resolution as measured by the Frobenius-Perron dimension.…
We define and study a higher-dimensional version of model theoretic internality, and relate it to higher-dimensional definable groupoids in the base theory.
There is a natural conjugation action on the set of endomorphism of $\P^N$ of fixed degree $d \geq 2$. The quotient by this action forms the moduli of degree $d$ endomorphisms of $\P^N$, denoted $\mathcal{M}_d^N$. We construct invariant…
We present the Boolean dimension of a graph, we relate it with the notions of inner, geometric and symplectic dimensions, and with the rank and minrank of a graph. We obtain an exact formula for the Boolean dimension of a tree in terms of a…
We review the current status of dimensions, as the result of a long and controversial history that includes input from philosophy and physics. Our conclusion is that they are subjective but essential concepts which provide a kind of…
An extension of order theory is presented that serves as a formalism for the study of dendroidal sets analogously to way the formalism of order theory is used in the study of simplicial sets.
We prove that if two additive functions (from a certain class) take large values with roughly the same probability then they must be identical. This is a consequence of a structure theorem making clear the inter-relation between the…
Interestingness is an important criterion by which we judge knowledge discovery. But, interestingness has escaped all attempts to capture its intuitive meaning into a concise and comprehensive form. A unifying paradigm is formulated by…
The problem of estimating, from a random sample of points, the dimension of a compact subset $S$ of the Euclidean space is considered. The emphasis is put on consistency results in the statistical sense. That is, statements of convergence…
In the context of abstract coinduction in complete lattices, the notion of compatible function makes it possible to introduce enhancements of the coinduction proof principle. The largest compatible function, called the companion, subsumes…
We construct an iterative method for factorising small strict n-categories into a unique (up to isomorphism) collection of small 1- categories. Following this we develop the theory to include a large class of $\infty$-categories. We use…
High-order phenomena play crucial roles in many systems of interest, but their analysis is often highly nontrivial. There is a rich literature providing a number of alternative information-theoretic quantities capturing high-order…
